TAGT Regional Professional Development Conference

Thanks go to everyone who attended the very first TAGT Regional Conference. TAGT appreciates your participation and your willingness to take a Saturday from your busy schedule to earn professional development hours in gifted education.

We were very pleased by the turnout of approximately 275 people for the conference, which greatly exceeded our expectations. We also appreciate the great distance those of you from Region 18 traveled in order to attend and present—it is a long way from towns such as Odessa, Presidio, and Fort Stockton to El Paso.

October 22 • 8:30 to 4:00
Coronado High School • 100 Champions Place • El Paso, TX 79912
